Rhomboid Wrasse male (Cirrhilabrus pylei) also known as the Pyle's Fairy Wrasse or Blue Margin Fairy Wrasse, has an unforgettable pattern of colors. The male and female of this species are very similarly colored, but when courting, the male will display increased color intensity. Colors may vary depending on the fish's mood. Rhomboid Wrasse male is a very peaceful, active fish that will bring both color and activity to a fish-only or reef aquarium of 50 gallons or larger. It will not bother any corals or invertebrates making them a perfect fish for the reef aquarium. A single male can be kept with a group of females that are introduced prior to or at the same time as the male. These wrasse like to jump, so a tight fitting canopy is recommended.
You should feed your Rhomboid Wrasse male (Cirrhilabrus pylei) diet should be carnivorous including meaty frozen foods or Brine Shrimp. A sand bed and Live Rock should be provided for all Wrasses. Live Rock provides numerous small life forms that Wrasses consider a tasty treat as well as another place to hide when they feel threatened.
